FIRES YESTERDAY.
Five Thousand Dollars Worth OF Pro
nerLY DESTROYED.

Yesterday about II o'clock the roof Of
the spike-mill ut the Tredegar Iron
Works caught fire, and before the Fire
Department could extinguish the flames
about s., 600 worth Of property was de-
stroyed. The fremen were promptly on
hand, but owing to the water being ont
of the canal, on account of the break at
the Ola pump-house, the four steam
force-pumps could not be worked, con
sequently the men had to rely upon buck
cts. There was great delay in turning
in the alarm on account of the recent re-
moval of the alarm-box from the Trede-
car Works to the foot of Seventh street,
and before the city Fire Department
could be gotten to work the fire had made
such headway that two Of the shedswere
very much damaged. The Fire Depart
mcnt, however, succeeded in stayingthe
progress of the flames, and in about half
an hour the fire was out
The origin of the fire is a mystery, as
these mills shut down several days ago,
and there was no fire known to be about
the place. 1t is not thought that any Sc
rious damage has been done to the ma
chinery in these two mills.
Early yesterday morning-about n
quarter past o'clock-as noted in yes
terday issue, a fire occurred in The sta
bic adjoining Michael Kelly's junk store.
The damage amounted to about S75. An
incendiary is supposed to have done the
work.

BEET SUGAR.

Claus Spreckles has made a good
stride on the pathway to fame by the
steps he has taken to establish in
California the beet sugar industry.
Mr.. spreckles has acquired a knowl-
edge of the art very much as Peter
the Great learned to build ships in
England. The California sugar mer-
chant and r%efiner, who is reputed to
have SIS, 100000 at his command,
went to Germany and there saw for
himself the process OF beet sugar
manufacture at every stage. In order
to applythe knowledge thus acquired,
MI. spreckles has purchased German
beet seed for the use of the farmers
in California and elsewhere. He has
ordered German machinery which
will cost 100000 and be has secured
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1887-10-05

control Of process which promises
great results. He is full Of confidence,
but is content to await results. He
knows that similar enterprises have
failed, but he is not discouraged. 7
have sufficient confidence in the ex-
pertinent to put my own money in it.
he says, and adds, Germany o ex-
ports annually 600, 1000 tons Of beet
sugar and consumes 400, 900 tons. I
believe this will be the greatest indus
try ever started in the United States"
This confidence is warranted by
European experience. When Ma
poleon [ encouraged this industry in
order to make up for the West Indian
supply, which was cut off by British
cruisers, the prospect was slight that
it would attain It's present proper
tons, but the perseverance of the
French and German people was fin
ally crowned with success. As we
pay Sl25, 100000 annually for foreign
sugar, it is to be hoped that MIR.
spreckles' enterprise will meet with
like reward.

*aiaine never had any territorial organization
but was admitted as soon as she was separated
from Massachusetts.
Texas was likewise admitted ne a state vher
she joined the union.
It will be seen that while MANY
founders of the republic were still
alive and the teachings OF all received
the respect due them, Louisiana was
admitted after only nine years proba-
ton and with a population of only
$4,000. Forty thousand people were
deemed enough in 1918 to entitle Hi
nois to home rule, after a like term
OF territorial existence. After 81
years experience, the republic saw
no a to change this wise policy
and admitted Michigan to statehood
in 1887, with only $1,000 people,
being about one-third the present
population OF ST. Paul. There are
qualifying circumstances in some
cases, but we hold that precedents
and practice are overwhelmingly in
favor Of the speedy admission of
Montana which has been twenty-three
years a territory and has $50, 900

Duh FIELDS.

The mineral discoveries IN the Belt
mountains, referred to in another col
unin, are important than may
appear at first glance. Mineral Of all
klnas-coal, iron, lead, copper and sill
ver-seem to be found in abundance
in the new district and the character
Of the ores is such as to render them
Of great valne, taken in connection
with the mineral of the several other
districts of the Belt mountains. Gal
ena is found in great quantities and
this is just what is needed to easily
and successfully treat the ores Of
Neihart and adjacent camps. With a
branch railroad from Great Falls to
Neihart, Clendenin and the Wolf
and Yogo districts and mammoth re-
duction works established at this city
results that will be accomplished at
the earliest possible day-every factor
necessary to the successful operation
Of such works will be at hand. We
will have the coal and coke at u
doors; the rich but somewhat refrac-
tory ores of Neihart and adjoining
camps can be drawn from; the lead,
iron and copper, in inexhaustable
supply, are to be had at Clendenin.
Wolf creek, Yogo and elsewhere in the
Belt mountains-so that ali necessary
r and fuxes are at hand in close
proximity, and the success of the pro-
posed reduction work at Great Falls
is assured, even without drawing upon
other portions Of the territory. The
Belt mountains and foothills supply
everything that is needed. The adj
vent OF the railroad to these districts
and the aid of capital in the develop
ment of the mines and the reduction
OF the ores are only needed to render |
these lei mine al fields the most ac-
